Work with JT
Work with JT on something bigger.
Two ways to have me in your business: a fractional engagement, where I run operations, marketing or finance alongside you, or The Operator Build, where I build the one system your business runs on. Both start with a free Build Call.
Fractional COO, CMO and CFO
From $5,000 a month, scoped on a free Build Call
I work inside the business with you for as long as it takes to get the operation, the marketing or the numbers running without you carrying all of it.
The Operator Build
Stop renting your business. Own it.
Most owners pay for a dozen tools that each do one piece of the job, and none of them talk to each other. I build the one system your business actually runs on, shaped around how you work, and when it is done you own it outright.
The rented stack
A CRM here, a scheduler there, invoicing in a third tool, and a spreadsheet holding it all together. You bend the business to fit the software. It should work the other way around.
You pay for every seat, forever
Every tool bills monthly, and the bill grows with every person you hire.
Your data lives in their system
Leaving means exporting, cleaning and starting over, so most owners never leave.
It changes when they decide
A price rise, a removed feature, a new plan you now need. None of it is your call.
One system. Yours.
Custom software shaped around how you work. It replaces the tools you rent today, and you own the code and the accounts it runs on outright.
And a team that does the work
AI agents trained for the roles a growing business needs: lead generation, sales, customer success, and a Chief of Staff to run them. Each one works from your playbook, checks its own work, and answers to you.
Meet the teamThree sizes of build
Every build is scoped before you pay. These are the shapes they usually take. The samples show the kind of thing each size produces, not any one client.
One focused tool
A single job, done properly: a client portal, a quote builder, an intake that becomes an invoice without anyone retyping it.
Your operating system
Clients, scheduling, jobs, billing and reporting in one place, so the business runs from a single screen instead of six tabs.
A full platform
A member or customer app, an API, an admin console, payments and automations. The kind of system a business can grow into for years.
The next ten clients get their website built too
A full website build, normally $10,000, included with the software. It ends at ten.
From first click to handover
You get your score straight away, and I read your answers before we speak.
Thirty minutes on what you run, what you pay for, and what a system or a team would take off your plate.
A written scope, a price range and a timeline. Larger builds start with a paid spec phase that turns it into a full plan before any code is written.
Built in stages, with a working version to test along the way. Then it is yours.
Plain terms
You own it
The code and the accounts it runs on, outright, when the build is done.
In writing before you pay
You see the scope, the price range and the timeline in writing before you pay anything.
Milestone billing
Builds are invoiced in stages by bank transfer, so you pay as it takes shape.
The Build Call
Talk it through with me
Free. 30 minutes, on my calendar.
It starts with your assessment, so the call is about your business and not the basics. We go through what you run, what you pay for, and what a system or a team would take off your plate. If it is a fit, you get a written proposal: what I would build, the price range and the timeline.
Questions
What is the Build Call?
A free 30 minute call after your assessment. If one of these is a fit, a written proposal follows with the scope, the price range and the timeline. If it is not, I will tell you what to do instead.
What does a fractional engagement cost?
Fractional COO, CMO and CFO engagements start from $5,000 a month. Each one is scoped on the Build Call, so you pay for the work your business needs and nothing else.
Who owns what you build?
You do. The code and the accounts it runs on are yours outright when the build is done.
How is a build paid for?
Everything is written down before you pay: the scope, the price and the timeline. Builds are billed at milestones by bank transfer, so you pay as it takes shape.
